Feed Aggregator

There are many possible future features we're considering, including in no particular order:

• Per-user interface theming.
• An admin interface for managing users.
• Marking (and saving) of favorite articles.
• Filter feeds without new articles, show unread articles, etc.
• Feed re-ordering via drag-and-drop.

If there are other must-haves, let us know (or send patches!), and feel free to vote on the forums.

Although unlikely, it's possible that Rnews is not for you. There are other options out there, like: Feed on Feeds, CafeRSS, Flock, Rawdog, Tollwut, Lilina, and Feedpope.

Check them out. And then come home to Rnews.

Rnews is designed to be used interactively in a browser. But with some Un*x know-how, you can use Links to update feeds periodically from scripts. Access Rnews and login (make sure to select the 'remember me' box) to your account. After this first step, you can use a crontab entry like this one to automatically update your feeds every four hours (probably more than often enough):

0 0,4,8,12,16,20 * * * /path/to/links -dump http://your.host/path/to/rnews/index.php >/dev/null

Project stats, and project news feed.
